Refusal to serve us at 8pm
We stayed in a superior room that was missing things to make it so like a fridge.

Nice hotel close to the beach and very friendly st
You get your bang for the buck with Jamjen's lodge. It's cheap and close to the beach so it's very convenient. The room we rented is good for two and we had enough space for it. What I liked about it most was the cleanliness and spaciousness of the bathroom. Overall, I would definitely check back in here once I return to Baler

Centrally located
Affordable restaurants nearby with tasty food and peaceful environment. You can walk (5) minutes to beach & fifteen (15) to museum. Tricycles are close for tour rental. Big clean pool 3-5 ft deep. Plenty of space for vehicle parking. Bus is 5-6 minutes by tricycle @ P15 per head (standard price).

Worst nightmare!!
Worst hotel I've ever stayed! On the first night, my room is descent had a fan and TV. On the second night they moved me to another room coz they need the room for another customer. The room did not have a TV at all but yet they still charged me the same. They pretty much ruined my vacation! They said I can get my room back with extra charges! This hotel is a ripped off!

Nice, affordable, and serine hotel
It's easy to go to jamjen's by just using google maps. If you are looking for a very affordable hotel accomodation, then this is the right hotel for you. They have a small table outside your rooms where you can have your meals or just stay there while using their free wifi. They also have a pool (but we don't swim there because its small for my mom), its a good place to take a dip if the beach area is crowded. They don't have a beach view like the other hotel, because there is one more hotel covering the whole beach view infront jamjen's. But no worries, you can just walk right past through the other hotel. They also have a relative that is a liscence tour guide of baler. You can hire him to tour you to the whole place for as low as P800/day. He is very nice and will help you find a nice instructor if you also wanted to try to surf on the sabang beach (best season/month is MARCH as told by the locals). Not only baler is for surfing but they have rock formations that is very dangerous, as well as their continuous falls(exactly from mother falls upto diguisit falls), and from hills that you can view the whole place of baler and more!

Go surf in Baler!
Right next to the beach, Jamjen was a sweet little hostel! Super friendly staff who cook delicious meals for breakfast lunch and dinner! The owner has some surfboards for rent but mostly longboards.. if you are a good surfer bring ur own board or try renting out from Charlie's.. The rooms were nice enough but still super hot and humid even with a fan.. the bedsheets were eh and there was no hot water.. but overall we had a great time at Jamjen's! Cementos is 30 minutes away by tricycle but surf right out front was fun enough!

A minute walk to the beach
The couple who owns the lodge are very accommodating, nice and easy to deal with. The resort has a swimming pool where you can take a deep and swim if the waves in the beach is too high. If you are looking for a budget meal of P60.00 to 80.00 go to JamJen. A lot of people from other nearby resorts have their meals in JamJen's kubo restaurant for they offer affordable price and the food is okay. The rooms are clean, with hot and cold shower, air condition, cable tv but for the Wi-Fi since they are fully booked its hard to get an access. With these amenities their rates are affordable.

Lage sehr gut, sonst nichts
Die Lage ist super, zum Strand sind es ca 20 Meter und das Zimmer war auch sauber als wir ankamen, wurde aber in der Zeit in der wir dort waren nie sauber gemacht. In der 3. Nacht hat es in unser Zimmer reingeregnet, direkt auf das Bett. Abends um 22 Uhr war niemand mehr erreichbar, auch über Facebook nie eine Antwort bekommen. Am nächsten morgen durften wir dann in ein neues Zimmer umziehen, ich habe als Entschädigung um ein besseres Zimmer gebeten (fast die ganze Lodge war frei) aber wir haben stattdessen sogar ein kleineres Zimmer mit kleinerem Bad bekommen. Der Besitzer hat sich überhaupt nicht dafür interessiert, war Zuseher mit rülpsen beschäftigt.
Es gibt einige Hunde dort, die sind super nur hat es dadurch in den 5 Tagen wo wir dort waren extrem nach nassem Hund gerochen. Unser Zimmer hatte leider auch die Lage zwischen Rezeption und Restaurant und die Familie/Freunde der jamjens Lodge haben sich über 20 Meter Entfernung immer lauthals unterhalten.
Es gibt einige nette Mitarbeiter der Jamjens Lodge und die Lage ist wirklich super (super Restaurants in der Nähe) aber man sollte doch bei einem Guesthouse Nahe am Strand wenigstens das Bad mal sauber machen oder Besen zum rauskehren bereit stellen.
